Weekend with friends!!!!

My two college roommates came to visit for the weekend!!!! We started a tradition that after someone has a new baby, everyone goes to there house to visit......so......everyone came to MEET MOLLY ANN! It was a great weekend....yet, the six kids kept us on our toes!!! The three older girls played REALLY WELL, 99% of the time, which was really nice. They left this afternoon as great friends (not that we are pushing friendship on them or anything crazy like that!) They arrived on Friday afternoon and left on Sunday afternoon....so we had two full days and nights together. We stayed at the house, most of the time, but ventured to McDonald's for lunch yesterday afternoon. We celebrated our Christmas together and all the kids received lots of fun presents. It was a nice weekend with some great friends. Our next trip will be coming soon....as Sarah is due with her third child on March 14!!!

We did manage to get a picture of all 9 of us.....with a LOT of bribing!!!

Sarah, Sam, Michaela, Molly, Eli, Myka, Emily, Kelly, Molly
My girls with me!

Molly, Myka (3 1/2 yrs.), and Eli (7 months)

Sarah, Sam (15 months), and Michaela (2 1/2 yrs.)

The three BIG girls......our best attempt at a picture!

NEW FRIENDS!!! Eli & Molly

(All the older sibblings were sleeping....so the babies got some time to become friends!!!)

Myka, Michaela, and Kelly playing with PLAY-DOH.

(Play-Doh was a HIT this weekend!)

Molly sleeping and smiling in her swing!!! She was safe there when all the other kids were running around.

Kelly and Myka giving hugs before bedtime. Myka stayed in Kelly's room on the trundle bed. We read stories together before bedtime each night and the girls played "a little bit"....but overall, they both slept really well.

4 kids in a SMALL bathtub!

Bathtub FUN!

Myka and Sam got out....but Kelly and Michaela kept playing. They took turns washing each others feet!!! :)
